Powered by the Jacksonville Business Journal, welcome to First Coast Inno, a new digital media brand focused on local innovation.

Part of the American Inno network of sites, First Coast Inno will serve as your source for who and what is next in market, from first-time founders and growth-stage businesses to trends and ideas that are transforming local industries and pillars.

With presence in 44+ emerging and thriving ecosystems across the country, including Austin, Atlanta, Boston, Richmond and Tampa, Inno will complement its boots-on-the-ground reporting with national intelligence and insights, providing you with a one-stop-shop to both the local and national innovation economy. Learn more about American Inno here.

At Inno, we love to tell stories about the people behind the companies, ideas and organizations that are shaping the present and future of a city's economy. You’ll also find longer looks into the trends and topics that are impacting and influencing the region's tech and startup communities, as well as resource-driven lists, multimedia and much more.

And along with daily news and analysis that will help you stay informed and plugged in, Inno will also serve as an onboarding tool for people and businesses that are new to the ecosystem. Through quarterly awards and features, Inno will act as your terminal to the leaders and companies that define your innovation economy.

Inno also has a membership offering that will unlock the full breadth of its reporting and storytelling. For $5/month, you'll receive access to everything on First Coast Inno and our 44+ other platforms. Anchored by one of the largest stables of startup reporters in the country, an Inno+ membership is your key to national innovation intelligence, powered by local authority.

Since Inno's launch over 10 years ago in Boston, we’ve covered the journeys and growth of countless startups, showcasing evolutions of all shapes and sizes, from Series As to acquisitions and pitches to IPOs. Inno, with its national expansion and membership rollout this summer, will continue to follow in the footsteps of the innovators we’ve showcased, constantly evolving to help fuel our growth and best serve you, our readers. We look forward to adding more bells-and-whistles to our offerings in the near future. Stay tuned!

First Coast Inno is excited to spotlight the local innovation economy and the people behind it; it's time to get to work.
